I am looking for a harty species that has similar care to the Veiled. I do understand that captive bread is where it is at and my first cham was captive. I'm really excited to have a cham back in my cage. After the last guy left I've been missing him. I'm leaning toward Senegal right now!
Im going to Noblesville this weekend to pick out my next little guy and I havent decided if I want a veiled or a senegal. My last cham was a veiled but I am starting to like the look and size and feel of the senegal. Does anyone have any suggestions of key decision making factors I dont know...
I am looking for a pygmy chameleon. Preferably a male. I am in Indiana. If anyone finds some online or knows of a store, I would love to know of it! Thank you.
thank you for all your help thus far, I did try the shower and i tried to get him to drink a little. For now he is back in his enclosure and resting for the night. I will keep you all posted. best of hope for baby Rango!
I just read online that it could be possible that there is gunk on his eyes and that may be partly why he will not open them and to use saline solution on a q-tip to help him. should I try this?
at this point I am desperate to save my baby boy.
how do i help him at this point. please help me, I really dont wanna lose him! I fear he is past the point of no return. He is very weak and wont drink and wont open his eyes.
